Y Le Parfum vs Bleu de Chanel Eau de Parfum

Y Le Parfum is viewed as a decent but unremarkable fragrance that successfully refines the Y DNA for a more mature audience. While it performs well and smells good, community members feel it lacks distinctiveness and is overshadowed by other flankers like Y EDP and Y Live, making it a safe but not exciting choice that only appeals strongly to those seeking a less youthful alternative.

The r/fragrance community views Bleu de Chanel Eau de Parfum as a solid, dependable everyday fragrance with strong longevity and crowd-pleasing qualities. However, many users report issues with nose blindness and weak projection, though others confirm others can still smell it on them even when they cannot. It's generally considered a safe, versatile choice rather than a standout scent.
